在界定恐怖主义时,普遍强调传达恐怖信息,造成社会恐慌。由于缺少胁迫和威吓要素,互联网上的黑客行为很难被界定为恐怖行为。不过在技术上借助互联网发动恐怖攻击并非毫无可能。越来越多的基础设施已经联网,一旦控制这些设施的系统被恐怖分子控制,他们很容易发动恐怖袭击,造成人员伤亡等毁灭性的后果。目前已经有通过攻击网站传达政治恐吓的先例。除此以外,已经出现恐怖组织借助互联网完成情报搜集、通信、宣传等多项任务。在物理上隔绝信息系统是防范网络恐怖活动的重要方法,但这也不能杜绝网络恐怖活动。而目前的国内法在打击网络恐怖主义方面还存在障碍,涉及国家主权争议,需要加以完善。
In the definition of terrorism, there is a general emphasis on the transmission of terrorist information, causing public panic. Due to the lack of coercion and intimidation, hacking on the Internet is hard to define as a terrorist act. However, technically using the Internet to launch a terrorist attack is not impossible. As more and more infrastructure is networked, once the systems that control these facilities are controlled by terrorists, they are vulnerable to the devastating consequences of terrorist attacks and casualties. There are precedents for sending political intimidation through attacks on websites. In addition, terrorist organizations have been using the Internet to complete the information gathering, communications, publicity and many other tasks. The physical isolation of information systems is an important method of preventing terrorist activities on the Internet, but this can not put an end to cyber terrorist activities. However, there are still some obstacles in the current domestic law to combat cyberterrorism, which involve the disputes over state sovereignty and need to be improved.
